As a warring group it is likely learned behavior.[/i] > > Ants are truly amazing. Most of our own social behaviour is learned, and the question that arises is how it originates. If the authors’ very credible explanation is right, this apparent altruism has a practical value for the survival of the colony, but it would have required a high degree of intelligence to work out what needed to be done and how to do it. Once again, many thanks for yet another instance of the wonders of nature and the astonishing intelligence of our fellow creatures.
